Would it be possible to swap the keyboard shortcuts for Executing a Query and for Refreshing a pane? My reasoning is that F5 is somewhat a standard for refreshing a pane (Windows Explorer shell standard and various other programs), and F9 is what MyFrontEnd used for executing queries, and it might help users that are migrating from that program to SQLyog, such as myself.

Thanks fo much.

I agree. MySqlFront also uses F9 to execute queries.

I agree too. Please, please, please, allow keyboard shortcut remapping. Most of the tools I have used use F9 to execute a query. I don't really care what it is, but NOT F5 which has meant refresh in Windows since the 1980s.

I could hex edit the menu resources in the exe.

Are the menus standard resources?

It is a very bad idea to post the same in two different threads in the same forum. This is elementary netetiquette! Better post it ONE PLACE and post a link the second place!

And the reason for this is that the discussion will be devided between two threads, and users that don't know that will miss part of the discussion!

I shall therefore ask users who want to discuss this to go here:

Well actually F5 means refresh because you are used to Microsoft "Explorer" standards...

If you have any experience with Microsoft SQL you will know that MSSQL Query Analyzer uses F5 to execute query.

When we first designed SQLyog, we followed desings and keyboard shortcuts like MS SQL Server. We plan to make keyboard shortcuts configurable in one of the future versions of SQLyog.
